American Court Gossip: Or Life At The National Capitol (1887) is a book written by Mrs. E. N. Chapin. The book is a collection of anecdotes and stories about the social and political life in Washington D.C. during the late 19th century. The author, who was a prominent socialite herself, provides an insider's view of the court and the political scene of the time. The book is divided into chapters that cover various aspects of life in the capital, including the White House, Congress, and the social events that took place there. The author's writing style is engaging and witty, and she provides a unique perspective on the personalities and events that shaped American politics during this period. The book is a fascinating glimpse into the world of politics and society in the late 1800s and is a must-read for anyone interested in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
